He needs to get his finger out with his batting, then.That'be a tad unfair on Jimmy Anderson.
He liked his bait.Botham for me..others aren't fit to tie his pads on....cooked his dinner umpteen times, once cooked a one clawed 7 and half pound lobster for him..nice bloke
Stokes is quality, but not on Botham's level imo . He seems to be a batsman these days. Botham destroyed teams with bat AND ball. Flintoff is a far off third imo. Good bowler, never produced enough with the batStokes still has a long career ahead of him. Freddie was a twat and could have been one of the best. Beefy was class but stokes will be the considered the greatest once his career is over and rightly so.

I know he's not in the same league but I still loved Freddie the daft bastard. But England's best ashes performance for me came without him or a genuine all rounder. 2010/11 in AusIt will be an interesting (and more fair) question once Stokes finishes playing.
With all due respect to Flintoff, I would say that Stokes is already comfortably ahead of him and Botham is in a different class altogether to Flintoff.

I don't think they have ever had a world class oneVery rare the Aussies play a genuine all-rounder.

Walking lbwNot since the 60's. On another thread someone mentioned Watson which I thought was a bit laughable.
Walking lbw
Bucking - Botham (allegedly)
Drinking- Flintoff
Fighting- Stokes
He has 14 test centuries to be fairI think Botham was a truly world class bowler but I think his batting gets talked up a lot mind. Mainly cos of the 149* at Headingley.
